Pop culture and history rarely intersect. The expansion of the interesting, viral, and sensational tends to clash with stories that get older by the day. When they do intersect in new and exciting ways, however, an opportunity for public education emerges. In the wake of the mega-success of Hamilton, a hip-hop musical by Lin-Manuel Miranda about the first Treasury Secretary, new educational opportunities arose at historic sites associated with the primary characters in the show. The musical offered not only a massive history lesson which permeates the knowledge bases of historic site visitor audiences, but also provided new ways for historic sites to enter a larger cultural conversation through social media and the musical’s auxiliary products. This research explores the ways in which four historic house museums have been interacting with the history presented in and cultural references created by Hamilton.
